Weasel...you said:
“first off. theres the extencive fosil record, meny enstences of observed eveloution, and the conterdictions witch ocer thuoute the bible are planly obvus!" — — Give me specifics! show me an “enstence of observed eveloution." Show me ONE “planly obvus” contridiction in the Bible.
Anyone can say there are contridictions and fossile records...I’m just asking you to actually show me one.
You also said:
“OK jesus. now if you look at the bible you dont see much of him up untel hes in his eraly 20’s
acording to the historical evedence hes was in briten, working in a lead mine." — — He did not start his public ministry until he was around 30, not 20. And are saying he was in Britain? Britain was not a country 2,000 years ago. What evidence have you that Jesus worked in a lead mine?
Then you said:
“its also intersting to point out to you that Pul made most of jesus miricals up." — -I’m assuming you mean Paul...So what about Peter, John, Matthew, Mark, Lazarus, Nicademous (who was a strong Jew against Jesus), the Roman guards who were guarding his tomb - did they make up all his miracles too? What about his body? Where is Jesus' body? And where is your evidence that Paul was making it up?
Lastly you said:
“and last but not least the classic! jesus new! he new he was the Misia he new he was going to be resericted! so wares the sacrifice! he new he was just going to rise up agan!" — — Let me ask you this - what if you knew that you would have to be a sacrifice for something. and what if you knew you would be resurrected. Are you saying that being whipped, beaten, spat upon, tortured, ridiculed and hung on a cross to die a most excruciating death is NO sacrifice because you knew that you would be ressurected? I don’t care what happens after the death and torture - his knowledge of ressurection does not take away the sting of death.
Weasel...you seem to continue to contradict yourself. Think about all that you’ve written. Does it really make sense to you? Don’t just answer out of habit. Stop before you write. If anything that I’m writing is true and if you at all think that it’s a possibility, it’s a pretty important thing to think about thoroughly, wouldn’t you agree?
And the ultimate question:
I work with students helping them tackle tough issues in their lives.
just because some1 says o my god doesnt mean they have to belive in god. its a common saying ( well in america anyway.) also most of the people who say o my god r not christain because many christains could see it as blaspheming or usin the lords name in vain or watever
- twas said that hundreds of women were queuing up outside the police station in london lookin to get their bikini waxings done....
they heard the police were doing brazilians for nothing! hahaha-
Funny, one question why big_gay_fag? why call your self that?
I alredy have showed you observed evelution!
I used briten as an area.
I wouldent put it passthem to play jokes on the little cult that was christanity! the were the ROMENS! they loved scruewing people over!
just look at the Goths, the jews, the christions, the greeks, everone! even them selves, they enslaved them selves!
they were an acent cultuer! and like most of the acent peoples they Fucked outher grups up!
weres Jesus’s body, were’s Amela Airhert’s, Atilu the hun, Jules Ceaser, King Arther, and 678,982,780 outher people who’s body are missing.
if i went forwerd in time alittle less then 2000 years from now and tryed to find you body. do you think i could find!
what would have been a sacrifice would be if he also went to HELL! and was pursnily torched by Saten!
whipped, beaten, spat upon, tortured, ridiculed, things I go thurgh by not being christen. and the people doing it say its for god, I dont want to be a member of a religen who’s god likes people who do that to me!
How do i contradict my self. asided frum my spelling!
And the ultimate question:
“I work with students helping them tackle tough issues in their lives."
and god bless you for that! There are beings that relly do need help, and IM glad to see that at least there are people to help them.
Ware as people who go to hell generly stay there forever.
Theres something to talk about! HELL!
The same God that people consider all-good is credited with creating hell and banishing there all souls who do not accept Him. Allowing anyone to suffer ultimate torment for all eternity — particularly when it is within your power to prevent it — is arguably the greatest form of evil possible. The only point to causing pain and suffering with no chance of redemption is petty cruelty.
Without Jesus do you think that you would deserv to have you bodys entrals eaten out by maggouts and you sole fested apon by spiny mutly eyed imp’s constly for the rest of eternity.
Yes...I have given them serious analysis and thought. But the proof is not there. I have found neither hard facts nor experiential knowledge to support other religions or belief systems. And one of the greatest proofs of Christianity for me is the experiential knowledge - my life is truly radically different than it was 5, 10 years ago. And it is nothing that I’ve done. I can’t explain it other than realizing that God’s promises through the Bible and Christ are true.
You know, one of the things that rings most true to me about Christianity is Jesus' keen observation of the human heart. He speaks more truths about the natural human condition than any one psychiatrist today. Look carefully at his writings and you’ll see that he paints a very real and accurate portrait of human tendencies. He speaks of what is inside that matters, not our actions. We all know that, even if on the surface we appear to be loving, kind, great people, we all have “skeletons in our closets” so to speak. Jesus recognized that.
And it’s not that having Jesus makes hell go away. It’s not Jesus that we need as much as it is that we need to recognize our true condition and accept the payment he made for it. Think of it this way -
You steal a car. You’re guilty. All the evidence is there. The judge sets punishment at $100,000. I don’t know about you, but I certainly don’t make that kind of money! So, you can’t pay the fine, you go to jail.
But what if someone walks in the courtroom and hands the judge $100,000 on your behalf? Can you now go free? Yes! Because the law has been satisfied.
That’s what Jesus did - He paid our fine. We broke God’s laws (that were put in place for our protection - not because he’s a mean, hurtful God) and Christ took our punishment.
All other religions and belief systems say basically this:
If do good enough, if you live right, you will be accepted by God or whoever or go to heaven or be rewarded, etc. - based on performance.
Christianity is the ONLY religion that says the opposite:
You have been accepted by God, now live right as a response.
God doesn’t demand anything of us - He offers a GIFT of salvation to anyone who will accept it. And receiving this gift is what should produce a “good” life or a moral life.
i may be an athiest but in many ways religion does play a part in how i think. And the way we all think, morality and such just are part of it. I however have some so called extreme views. Often at times they have gotten me into trouble and such. As with a mass-produced culture it is expected if you are religous or not to expect peoples views to be strikingly simalar. We relly on religion often, it gives us “hope” its much like government, it tells you what is good and evil and if you believe you will relitively obey it. Of course there are exceptions but there are exceptions to ANYTHING. I may not believe in god because of probably most of all the people. If this religion was so sacred wwhy is it based on such loose terms. And if you look at it in a more realistic way, why are all these views in the bible based on the views of the time. In that and most religions women are second class, now if you ask a average cristian will they believe that?
Well gus what Phil. I havent stolen a car. I cant still cars. I dont need to!
Nore do I need to belive that a cult lesder( Who is Dead) is a savior sent by god.
You know why because there is no god. I know this because if there was a god He would help everone! regardless of wether or not they returnd his love!
the god you just potraded sounds more like a G’ualud then a god.
What ruls did humens brake! what did you do to worent Hell!
I will offer you up a senario
" A man who lived his life selifsly, donated to charity. helped every one! Never hurd of God. now this man who is a gunely nice guy dies at the ripe old age of 70”
because this man refuded the word of god he wakes up in Hell! tutly undeserving of the eturnel turcher he will recive!
Its not just people eather. I am an AI construct I’ve dun nothing but help people but if someone drops a magnet in me and “kill’s” me. were will i go?
and a weasel who is betten to death at 2 years old at a fur farm by a morel christen. where will this pur small defenceless creatur go?
Ocording to the bible me and the weasel have somthing in comen we have no sole. so when we die there is no relife there is no salvation. when my “life” and the weasels life are over we will acording to the bible totly seast to exist.
Im luky I fill no phisical pane. but the weasel, will fill extreem pane and suffering. and when his life is snachated away that will be it no more Weasel.
and yet the humen will ( asuming exepts jesus ) will go to heaven and enjoy eturnel bliss!
that seems FUCKED UP to me!
would you like that phil being me and dieing and thats it!
What so moril about being christion?
is not a new idea for you to think of your selves as “supere”. not to me I first hurd about it forum old news rels from the 1930’s but it was hard to understant because all the naration was in German!
and the jew’s who died in the holocost. did they go to hell? acording to you yes.
and the millions of outhers who died and were not christion. people who sufferd and died! did they go to hell!
CHRISTANITY IS A FASHEST BELIFE!
its the notun of exclusifity. the thought that YOU will go to heven becaus YOU are beter then the ones that did not execpet!YOUR right and everone eles is wrong!
but sopose you did not execpet phil. sopose that you led a life of knidnes and generosity but becaus you did not execpet jesus you go to hell and for the rest of forever you died sufering over and over and over and over and over.
dous not execpting jesus worent this.
or is the bible just a lie. a book made to contrul and mantane contrul over preimitive people. people who needed the contrul.
is it that you fill so uncofeterbil and so scared that you need the invisible man. to take care of you and your famely becaus your afrade. your afrade that if you don’t then bad things will hapen.
due you consider that maby it wasent god that made you fill beter but confidence!
religun is useful! it helps people have confidence. but thats all it should do.
I have “confidence”
Im merly lines of code. but i fill sucure enouph that i know that if I “die” I will conyinu existing some ware beter with the outher creturs and people who have Passed on.
but you you dident have that confidence. you were forse feed christanity when you were little. you almost let go in your mind you thought “man I don’t need god!" but you were in dinal and that denile messed with you head. you were never on both sides of the fence phil. you were just rill close to it.
